The music!

Listen to the intro music!
Sound familiar?
The same strains were used nearly twenty years later after the intro roll as Darth Vader attacks Leia's ship in Star Wars!
Ironically the composer's last name in Alex was "Lucas".
Fun!

Yes, I too am more than familiar with various classical venues.
To me, like it or not, it still smacks of the opening to the first Star Wars film.
And I'm far from the only one that feels that way.
